Lake Country DockHounds News Release


Oconomowoc, Wis. - Wednesday afternoon, the DockHounds fell to the Gary SouthShore RailCats in the rubber match of the three-game series by a score of 5-3.

Harrison Smith stayed hot for the DockHounds, driving in all three runs this afternoon, with a two-run homer in the second inning to tie the game at 2, and an RBI single in the 6th. Jaxx Groshans was back behind the plate for Lake Country and reached base three times in his five five trips to the plate. Groshans had a double in the 2nd, a single in the 5th and a walk which loaded the bases in the 9th. Marcus Chiu was also back in the lineup after a day off yesterday.
